lyrics

you’re lashing out
you’re doing favours
we’re all in line
why you’d want to straighten us
wait for all you want
you’re leaving here
you’re disengaging
and you won’t be back till you break from this cage
and can wait for all you want

I could’ve sworn it was the way you look
now almost happy with it
some more of the same you’ve just been
now almost happy with it

a perfectionist
a freak of nature
watch the middle man
when he tends to sway from the law for now
you’re rational if you’re sick of sensing
the 9.9 on your scale of one to never
wait for all you want

I could’ve sworn it was the way you look
now almost happy with it
some more of the same you’ve just been
now almost happy with it

the race is on to formulate just
what it is that we are chasing
it’s holy in all these odd times
we race as one for ﬁve breaks a year
would do anything to have them here

in holy and all these odd times
I could’ve sworn it was the way you look
now almost happy with it
some more of the same you’ve just been
now almost happy with it
my toy is not a rainbow machine
now almost happy with it
some more of the same you’ve just been
now almost happy with it
